"Hua''er, shall we sneak out?" Nan Luo sneaked into Nan Hua''s room and asked. They had just had their dinner and after walking around a bit, they returned to the room they had selected.


    But such light exercise was not enough for him.


    He sneaked into Nan Hua''s room in hope that he would get a partner to help him get some exercise. The servants naturally didn''t notice since their martial arts were not better than him. The only one who knew… was Hou Liang and some other experts who were tasked to protect the two of them.


    Nan Hua put down the book she was reading. Since she was in the temple, she thought it would be good to read some of their books to learn about some matters regarding the temple.


    But now that Nan Luo asked her to train. Why not?


    "Ok."


    Nan Luo beamed and he rushed out of the building. This time, he was heading to the back, which was also the areas filled with trees. The Southern Quarter of Yi Shang Temple was filled with so many trees as it was usually left empty.


    "Let''s race to find an empty area."


    "En."


    Swish!


    Nan Hua swiftly changed her speed and traveled in the forest faster. Behind her, Nan Luo was scrambling to follow her while cursed slightly. In terms of instantaneous speed, he was clearly not Nan Hua''s match.


    The twins had fun running here and there to find a wider area before they stopped near the wall. There was an area of several meters'' width and length that would be suitable for them to practice.


    "This is the Southern Wall." Nan Luo pointed at the wall behind the row of trees not far from them. "We shouldn''t cross it unless we want to get out. This mountain is big and we can get lost if we didn''t know the way."


    Nan Hua nodded. She picked up a stick from near her leg. "Ready?"


    "Of course!" Nan Luo took out a stick too and the two of them swiftly began to make their move.


    Swish! Swish! Swish!


    Since their sticks were not that strong, they changed the tactic this time to evade their opponent''s attack. Nan Luo was having difficulties to catch up with Nan Hua''s speed while Nan Hua kept on evading with ease.


    It was a bit frustrating for him.


    Tak! Crack!


    One blow and the branch snapped into two. The two children were speechless when they realized they really couldn''t block each other''s attack or their weapon would snap. It seemed that they should have brought their wooden sword if they wanted to practice.


    "You two… it''s alreadyte. If you don''t go to your room, I''ll drag you two." Hou Liang crossed his hands with annoyed expression.


    "Ah, Hou Liang! When did you get here?" Nan Luo was stunned.


    "I''m already here since a long time ago." Hou Liang sighed and beckoned for them to follow him. "If you''re found to be wandering around at this time at night, there''ll be a lot of people who will talk bad about you."


    "Uh…"


    The twins had no other choice but to follow him for now. But of course, they repeated the same course of action the next day, making Hou Liang felt exasperated. They were sent here so that they could rest, why did they end up practicing martial arts again?


    Do they need to be tied up to properly rest?


    Thankfully, neither of the two were wounded, so it was fine even if they chose to train in Yi Shang Temple or things would turn ugly.


    He ended up punishing the two of them to copy scripture so that they would not run around everywhere.


    "Young Master, there are more people whoe to Yi Shang Temple. Would you like to see?" Xiao Yan asked.


    Nan Luo, who was in bad mood since he was tasked to copy the scripture, turned his head with interest. "Whoes?"


    "First Young Miss of Shangguan Family and Second Young Miss of Shangguan Family." Xiao Yan answered respectfully. He knew very well that Nan Luo wouldn''t stand staying in this room all the time, so he purposely searched for some news that would pique the young master''s interest.


    The bamboo scroll in front of Nan Luo was still empty as the young master hadn''t written anything for thest incense stick of time. It seemed that copying books was still much more enjoyable than copying Buddhist scripture.


    At least, for Nan Luo.


    "First Miss of Shangguan Family?" Nan Luo repeated as a smirk formed at the corner of his lips. "If I''m not wrong, Imperial Princess Yue is already here, right? There would be a good show to watch. Let me call Hua''er first."


    "Young Master, please be…" before Xiao Yan could even finish his words, Nan Luo had already flung to the room next door. He shook his head and chose not to say anything.


    At the room beside Nan Luo, Nan Hua was copying the scripture calmly. She had purposely picked one that she hadn''t read so that she could read while copying. Xiao Yun was preparing her tea while Bai Yin grinded the ink for her to use.


    The atmosphere was harmonious.


    Until Nan Luoe in.


    "Hua''er, let''s watch an interesting show! I''m sure you''ll be interested!" Nan Luo called out from outside the room.


    Nan Hua, who had only copied half, arched her eyebrows. She stood up. "I''ll back soon. Continue to grind the ink."


    "Yes, Miss." Bai Yin''s speed in grinding ink was very slow, which was why Nan Hua couldn''t write as fast as she wanted. Now that Nan Luo wanted to ask her out, she could use this as an excuse to have Bai Yin grinded more ink.


    "Be careful Miss." Xiao Yun also looked helpless.


    Nan Hua nodded and walked out. She looked at Nan Luo curiously. "What show, Luo?"


    "Of course, it''s the show of….. Come, let''s just follow me."
